Of course the technology corporations think everything they do is inevitable! They corrupted the U.S. government over to their side decades ago, making sure that The Law™ would protect their business models and guarantee them (through the direct and indirect pressures exerted by the threat of arrest and imprisonment, omnipresent in U.S. society) an assured supply of human labor and material resources.

We mere inhabitants of the United States feel practically forced to use the Internet in order to find work or communicate with government or with our own employers.
